Ambassador Amigos play an important role in the District. These Amigos serve as goodwill ambassadors in assisting downtown's various users. Their high visibility positions them to be proactive in assisting downtown conventioneers, visitors, workers, residents, and downtown’s various law enforcement officials.

Equipped with two-way radios and local area knowledge, these uniformed Ambassadors are strategically situated throughout the District and in high-pedestrian traffic areas at key times of the day

They form a unique partnership with local authorities providing maximum assistance and safety throughout the District, thereby supporting overall crime prevention.
My husband and I were wandering around the downtown area, trying to figure out where we were, when a nice Amigo approached and asked if she could help us with directions. After our interaction she handed us a card that said "Alamo City Amigo." She told us we could use this card to get directions in a pinch. San Antonio is one of the most tourist-friendly towns we've ever visited, and we will be back. Thank you for this service.

Just a quick note to say how helpful speaking to an Amigo about the City of San Antonio and the surrounding area was to us during our visit. His knowledge of the area and Texas in general was very interesting. Also, his suggestions of places to visit was most helpful. Our conversation with him was most enjoyable! He possesses a friendly and outgoing personality which was helpful in gathering information from him about the area. We feel the Amigo program is well worth preserving for visitors to the area.

Additionally, the Ambassadors act as information guides for the public.

They are in-the-know with regard to what's going on around downtown San Antonio. They are also available for directions to promotional events and downtown attractions.
